Gerry Devine is faced with a dilemma after suffering two personal tragedies; his brother drowned near his home in Singapore and the mother of his child has been unfaithful in their marriage at home in London. The tiny but beautiful Far Eastern country offers him an idyllic escape and chance to start his life over when he ventures there to deal with his brother's business, an Irish bar called Mister Johns. Surrounded by a stunning landscape and desirable women, there's a large part of him that wants to remain, comforted by his attractive sister-in-law Kim. However, as he manages to get himself into some trouble and his wife continues to call him, miserable in his absence and desperately worried about their daughter, Gerry struggles to find the right path as his grief blurs his concept of what he believes is right and wrong.
'Mister John' is a gut-wrenching drama flick written and directed by collaborative partners Joe Lawlor and Christine Molloy ('Helen'). Not just a story about the importance of family and love, but also one of betrayal, forgiveness and hypocrisy and the struggle to do what's best for one's own life and wellbeing. The movie is set to be released imminently on September 27th 2013.
